This 5-bed, 6-bath custom build in Etobicoke is all about the tech and the finishes. You're getting roughly 4,500 sq. ft. split over 2 floors plus a finished walkout basement, and it shows in the details. The main floor has floor-to-ceiling windows and a 20x10 foot opening with retractable screens that fold back to a covered patio. That's where you'll want to be in the summer. The kitchen is Neff cabinets with Miele built-ins, and there's custom millwork and built-ins throughout. Upstairs, all 4 bedrooms have their own ensuite, and the primary has a steam shower and automated blinds. The basement isn't an afterthought. There's a sauna, a gym tucked under the garage, and a separate entrance with in-law suite potential. It's wired for everything. Savant-controlled lighting with circadian Daylight Mode, integrated audio with built-in subwoofers, smart window coverings, and even a heated driveway. The 2-car garage is finished with epoxy floors and 20+ pot lights. Outside, the lot is 50 x 116.5 feet, fenced, with a hot tub. You're minutes to Old Mill, Bishop Allen Academy is 0.6 km away, and the arts school is under a kilometer. Priced at 4.198M, it's below the area median of 4.37M. The market's moving here. Only 2 active listings nearby and one sale in the last month. Taxes run about $14.9k. This one's smart, loaded, and ready. Worth a look if you want a place that's both a home and a tech showcase.
